ASTRAL REALM CASTLE
🕑 Added 2023-12-15 20:15:42 +0000 UTC
Where the Shadowspan marks the void between planes, the Astral Plane, or more precisely the Astral Sea, is known as the space between the worlds within a plane. Journeying from celestial body to celestial body, one traverses the Astral Sea until their destination is reached. The Astral Sea is a fantastical place where travel between planes is especially facile. The membrane to the Shadow Span and the planes beyond is thin. As on the worlds themselves, it's unsurprising that rich trading posts have formed along key travel routes between worlds. One such place is Dunkelkrone Castle, named after the Gertonian Dynasty that maintained its trading hub here. It features multiple astral docks, a vast marketplace, and lodgings for countless guests. However, the site's lucrativeness does not overshadow its dangers. Portals from other planes often appear, unleashing beasts on the hunt. This time, the well-equipped guards seemed unable to withstand the onslaught. Will you heed Dunkelkrone call for help and fight your way to the rift before something even worse enters this plane?
This castle is a marvelous location for all astral adventures. Its three areas are intentionally versatile. The Astral Port could be a teleportation destination leading to a wizard's hideout, while the grand hall at the center could serve as the antechamber of a throne room or even as a cathedral chamber. The portal could be employed in any city where a portal to the Nine Hells or worse has unexpectedly opened. This battlefield beckons adventurers to slash their way through hordes of monsters from bottom to top, confronting the archdemon at the portal to avert the looming threat.

Health Warning for Users with Epilepsy
When using animated Beneos Battlemaps, it's important to be aware of potential health risks, especially for individuals who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy. Some of our maps contain elements that could potentially trigger seizures for people with photosensitive epilepsy. For instance, lightning effects from storm animations on certain maps simulate strobe-like flashes which could act as a trigger. If you or anyone in your gaming group has a history of epilepsy or seizures, please consult a medical professional before using these animated maps. Additionally, users should take breaks regularly while playing, play in a well-lit room, and avoid playing if they are feeling fatigued or have had little sleep, as this can increase the risk of a seizure.

The most awesome and fantastic rendering of such a place that I've ever seen!! I've seen battlemaps that have a type of entrance, and some inner rooms. But this... exquisite!! Can't wait to have the players experience the gorgeous animated graphics!!
